The library is compatible with -IPL and utilizes Intel Integrated Performance Primitives for better -performance. +OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is an open source +computer vision and machine learning software library. OpenCV was +built to provide a common infrastructure for computer vision +applications and to accelerate the use of machine perception in the +commercial products. Being a BSD-licensed product, OpenCV makes it +easy for businesses to utilize and modify the code. + +The library has more than 2500 optimized algorithms, which includes +a comprehensive set of both classic and state-of-the-art computer +vision and machine learning algorithms. These algorithms can be +used to detect and recognize faces, identify objects, classify human +actions in videos, track camera movements, track moving objects, +extract 3D models of objects, produce 3D point clouds from stereo +cameras, stitch images together to produce a high resolution image +of an entire scene, find similar images from an image database, +remove red eyes from images taken using flash, follow eye movements, +recognize scenery and establish markers to overlay it with augmented +reality, etc. WWW: http://www.opencv.org |
